It may be possible to insert an EFI RST 12.9/13.1 into your board's BIOS:- check what Marvell ID your board has and keep only that from the 1B4B-9xxx group in CSMCORE. It should be either 1B4B-9120 or 1B4B-91A0.- disable Lan PXE Rom and also disable Lan Boot. This way you can remove 10EC-8168 from CSMCORE. Your Lan card will still work, just the ability to boot from network won't.- this is where the dangerous part comes. You must increase the size of the Firmware Volume by taking space from padding. I can do this, but I will not try it without you having some methods to recover from a bricked mainboard, meaning you should have a programmer or a dual BIOS. If this is not your main working board and you agree to test as it is, no strings and complaints attached, then I could give it a try.

From my tests, you will only get 90+ KB of space, enough to insert a compressed 12.9/13.1 EFI RST.

hey thanks for sharing what about the splash screen possible to delete? I wonder where is it. Fernando If I would want to upgrade following GA-P67A-UD3 BIOS U1d mod (The last one) on this http://forums.tweaktown.com/gigabyte/480...html#post462870 . Possible to extract and insert or replace in to my P8P67LE firmware? some of them seems newer than mine. But I'm not really sure which to extract and insert or replace. But I can see some of the name nearly identical. here is the mod text that include:

The main difference between the GA-P67A-UD3 BIOS U1d and the actual ASUS P8P67-LE BIOS 3703 is, that the original Gigabyte BIOS U1d has already been prepared by the mainboard manufacturer for the support of a clean UEFI mode OS installation. The original BIOS contains already all UEFI modules, which are needed (SataDriver, GopDriver etc.). That is the reason why it was not a big problem to update the already present UEFI modules.Your BIOS doesn't contain any UEFI module, that means, that you will have to insert them all. This will be very difficult with a 4 MB BIOS.

What do you mean with "under"?Within the CSMCORE file are just the Option ROM modules, but no SataDriver and no GopDriver. All freshly inserted non-ROM modules will be listed at the end of the list with the related "Volume" number, which should be the same as CSMCORE.

How to insert an Intel UEFI RAID "SataDriver" module: (when such file is missing within the AMI UEFI BIOS)Open the BIOS with the AMI Aptio UEFI MMTool and verify, that no module named "SataDriver" is listed.Check the Volume number (leftmost column) of the file "CSMCORE".Hit the tab "Insert".Hit the button "Browse" and navigate to the file named SataDriver.ffs you want to insert.Enter the Volume number of the file "CSMCORE" (will be 01 or 02) into the field "Vol. Index".Go to the "Insert FFS Options" section and check the option "Insert Compressed".Hit the button "Insert".Save the modified BIOS file.Verification:The inserted "SataDriver" should now be listed by the AMI Aptio MMTool at the end of the related Volume Index numbers.

Sorry my bad. guess I misunderstand. thanks fernando. currently I try extract gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3 BIOS U1d. but i can't 100% sure that is correct one to extract. I try to put each file name on right side. is Please Guide me Fernando.:-)

Since I haven't yet gotten any feedback from an Intel 6-Series RAID0 user, who has tested the "Universal TRIM modified" Intel SataDriver modules, I have done it myself.

This is what I did:

Reanimation of my good old Z68 RAID0 system (ASUS P8Z68-V with 2x128GB Crucial M4 SSDs as RAID0)

Preparation and flashing of an appropriate up-to-date BIOS, where I had additionally inserted the "Universal TRIM modified" SataDriver v13.0.0.2075 (GUID 90C8D394) and the actual Sandy/IvyBridge GopDrivers

Installation of Win8.1 x64 in UEFI mode onto a 100GB partition of the RAID0 array

Greetings. I am working on a Gigabyte Z68 motherboard that DOES have the SataDriver UEFI inserted. But when trying to use UBU to update to a Universally TRIM enabled version I have found that there is not a TRIM enabled version for EFI RAID "SataDriver" v12.9.0.2006 GUID 91B4D9C1. There is only a version for GUID 90xxxxx. This motherboard uses the 91B4D9C1 module. How can I get a universal TRIM version of that specific GUID?

Curious I just tried updating with the supplied file (thanks by the way) and UBU just freezes with a blinking cursor when replacing the module you attached and says File Exceeds the Volume Size? This didnt occur with the unmodified v12.9 SataDriver. Could something be wrong with it?
